I present: Crossbones
submitted about 10 years ago by Furyxus

Fury here again, and I'm posting a delicious dessert tobacco recipe for you punks. Ever since I got some of FA's and INW's tobaccos in, I've been playing around with them like crazy. Here's the first (of many) fruit-tobacco hybrids I'm working on that I can vape all day and never get sick of.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the recipe that is

#Crossbones:

(FA) Desert Ship - 2%

(INW) Nutty Princess - 1.5%

(FA) Black Fire - 0.33%

(FA) Latakia - 0.5%

(FLV) Rich Cinnamon - 0.5%

(FLV) Banana - 2%

(FLV) Peanut Butter - 1%

(TFA) Smooth - 0.33%

I've played around with banana, cinnamon and peanut butter combinations a little bit in the past. It sounds like a profile I could fall in love with. I never had success in creating something I could ADV. As spoke about in some of my other recipes, Flavorah is quickly becoming a favorite flavor company of mine. I'm digging their flavors big time. I revisited this profile and with their flavorings and its just fantastic; God-like almost.

With my first iteration of Crossbones, what surprised me most was how well the latakia and rich cinnamon worked together. They both have a slight front-of-the-tongue bite, but in tandem, they tickle it with joy and wonder. The peanut butter not only enhances the banana profile, but also lends to the tobacco base, particularly bring out that nutty princess that I'm also in love with, and I don't mean my girlfriend. the way the tobaccos and peanut butter/ cinnamon blend altogether is marvelous. The banana comes out on top, being pushed and supported the entire way by said blend.

I understand the FLV rich cinnamon is a wallet buster; I was scared to even use it here, but it's worth it. I just got FA cinnamon ceylon as some /#vapemail, but I havent fooled around with it, so I can't say whether or not it will be a cheaper replacement. If you have the flavors and/or means to whip this up, you will not be disappointed. The overall juice is kinda reminiscent of Ansel Adams by VTNW, if you're looking for something to compare it to or get an idea of what to expect, but the individual notes separate them very quickly.

As always, if you get to try this juice, please leave feedback. I love chatting with you bastards about what you do/ don't like, and how to make them better. Cheers to everyone and enjoy!

I'm super fucking interested in this. This may be the only recipes I've wanted to mix where I don't have all the flavorings. I need to get on this FLV train.

Damn. PM me your shipping info and nic level and I'll send you some. You're doing some big things in this community and I'd be happy to pay it back a bit.

Seriously, do check out FLV. I just got my shipment in today and made an all FLV version of this and it's so freaking impressive. So far from my few hours of tinkering and playing with my FLV bottles I got, I can confidently say they are some of the best flavors I've used.

Thanks for the idea, I'm missing some ingredients but it sounds like a profile I could like a lot. Only tobaccos I have are FA Shade, FA Virginia and FLV Cured Tobacco, I'll have to figure out which one(s) to use for it.

I haven't used any of the ones you listed, but I've heard awesome things about FLV flue cured tobacco. The bummer is that you'll miss out on the Latakia/ rich cinnamon combo; it's truly a thing of beauty. If you make your own variation and enjoy it, please share it with me so I can try it!

Yeah it's too bad, I'll keep your recipe saved in case I ever end up grabbing them but I'm missing all four tobaccos :(

As of now I haven't had much success with Shade, Virginia is great, and I haven't even tried the Cured Tobacco yet. It smells amazing from the bottle though! I'll try mixing it with FLV Boysenberry when I get to it, I have a feeling that should be nice.

Those 4 tobaccos are definitely worth it, if you're into tobaccos. I buy em from ecigexpress, and they have a coupon code (FLAVOURART25) open, so that would cut the cost for the FA tobaccos. Let me know how flue cured is! I'm definitely interested in hearing more about it.

Rich Cinnamon is super concentrated though, I'd never really push above 0.50%. When you think about value, not bad considering how little you need to use to achieve the effect. I actually prefer it around ~0.25% for a nice light touch, 0.50% will pop a bit (at least before it calms down after aging for a bit), which is fine if you like the cinnamon in the vape.

Going to swap out the Nutty Princess with INW 555 Gold give this a shot. I have a feeling with all the spice from desert ship and cinnamon it will take a few days so smooth out.

I agree. 15 mL will last me quite a while. I really like it for more of a cinnamon bite. I've never tried the 555 gold, but it couldn't hurt to try! I would give it a week. I was patient enough to let this iteration sit two weeks and I'm loving it. In my experience, its pretty damn good after around 4-5 days with some good shaking here and there.

And there's Latakia again. One of the few tobacco flavors I don't have. I was planning on getting it next time I need to place an order but it might become "now". This looks great.

ecigexpress has a coupon: FLAVOURART25 for 25% off flavourart flavorings. I bought like 9 more FA tobaccos and a couple more of their fruit/ sweet flavors. Worth every penny. I can't reccomend latakia enough, that along with black fire make for a mean tobacco base; I use it in FURY, another tobacco recipe I posted not long ago.

LOL. THAT was the other time I saw it.

HA! Well then, you know that I recommend it a lot then :) I'm gonna be posting more of these tobacco hybrids in the coming weeks/ months, and a couple of them include Latakia. I also recommend picking up black fire tobacco, desert ship, and glory. I've got a few others here but I haven't sampled them yet. They're worth it though!

I've always imagined making a juice that would be toasted cavendish with a graham cracker and honey undertone, but since I have no tobacco flavors, I don't want to have to order 20 of them to get it right :x

A mix with Nutty Princess! Been looking for a few more ideas for this, thanks!

No problem! In fact, you could probably do some big things with the combo of nutty princess and peanut butter. Delicious mixture. It's amazing how they compliment each other.

It's from an anime about pirates called One Piece where a boy eats a special fruit called the Gomu Gomu no Mi (japanese for Rubber Rubber Fruit) which grants him the properties of rubber; He exclaims "Gomu Gomu no ____" when attacking. The pirate theme made me think of it.

Ah I gotcha. I've never seen or heard of it, hence my confusion. Sorry!
